Elden Ring is the latest action role-playing game by FromSoftware, and as the studio's biggest hit to date, many players are expecting DLC to be in development. When it was revealed that the game would be an open world created by the minds of George R.R. Martin and Hidetaka Miyazaki, Elden Ring excited players around the globe. The developer took everything it learned from Demon Souls, the Dark Souls series, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice to create one of the most brutal and satisfying experiences of 2022. The title is considered as one of the main game of the year contenders, making it no surprise that fans hope for even more content. Questions still remain, though - will Elden Ring receive any DLC, and if so when will it release?
A majority of FromSoftware’s previous projects were accompanied by some form of expansion months after release. Dark Souls received its DLC titled Artorias of the Abyss 13 months after release, Dark Souls 2 had the Crown of the Sunken King expansion four months after its launch, Dark Souls 3 received its first DLC Ashes of Ariandel seven months later, and Bloodborne (its remaster only existent in dreams) got The Old Hunters expansion eight months after its debut. Demon Souls and Sekiroare the the exceptions, the former receiving no additional content, and the latter only getting minor additions like a boss rush mode. Based on FromSoftware’s track record, it seems likely that Elden Ring will get its own expansion about a year later, assuming it gets one at all.
